THOUSANDS of children and young people have enjoyed activities and healthy meals as part of a school holiday scheme across Staffordshire.
The Holiday Activity and Food (HAF) programme saw more than 50,000 sessions delivered at more than 100 venues around the county.
A total of 4,000 children participated in arts and crafts, sensory workshops, sports, games and more.
Cllr Mark Sutton, cabinet member for children and young people at Staffordshire County Council, said:
“It was fantastic to see HAF back in action this summer.
“It’s been wonderful to visit some of the sessions across the county, seeing first-hand the amazing work that our providers do to deliver a range of worthwhile, engaging activities that help children’s development.
“I’ve seen so many happy smiley faces, children learning from one another, laughing together and having so much fun – and that’s exactly what our HAF programme is all about.”
The HAF winter programme will be back in December over the Christmas break. For more information, visit www.staffordshire.gov.uk/holidayactivities.
